When I was pregnant, everyone told me you're going to be one of those women with a little football in front. And then this...thing, this Scooby-Doo monster belly arrived. I gained 65 pounds. Every single part of my body was thicker - even my scalp! But that's the advantage of being young - it went right back.

If I ever have sex with someone I might be able to develop a sense of humor.

I feel like I've done a bunch of period stuff and then a bunch of romantic comedies.

People keep asking me about it but I don't want to be famous for being a former anorexic.

It is very different. I mean, it was immediately different because it's a human being and it's not a vampire and it's not fighting monsters. This isn't the kind of movie that's got the comic book style of fighting to it. It was a bit more gritty.

I am used to wearing corsets. Even when I was first starting out it was either Shakespeare or Chekov. Everything that I was doing involved corsets. I guess I am just not destined to breathe that deeply.

I remember when I did 'Click' and I'd see Adam Sandler's fan base. He's the guy that people feel that he's their best friend, so he's walking down the street and people sort of high five him and want to tell him a joke or invite him to come home and have a sandwich with them.

I was a very difficult child, and the time I spent reading was about the only peace I gave my mother.

With every project you do, you bring out a part of yourself, and it seems to be quite a good way of expanding a person.

People should realize women aren't just whores or virgins, I want to see women who are real human beings.

I'm surprised there aren't more celebrities in burkhas.

I have a husband who literally worships me. And cleans the house. And blow-dries my daughter's hair.

Always argue over text so other people aren't embarrassed!

My daughter comes with me everywhere. I don't leave her behind. But it is hard. I mean, I think any working mother will tell you that what kind of falls by the wayside, you know, are the hours of sleep that you wish you had, and all that. I feel incredibly lucky and blessed, but I do sometimes feel like that exorcist lady!

As an actor, your motives and your own crazy psyche is really all you're responsible for in the movie.

I can't tell you how many times I've gone to present at the Golden Globes, come home, whipped the dress off and read to my daughter wearing gazillion-dollar earrings. That's how it goes in my house, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

I would say probably my least favorite costume ever was in 'Van Helsing.' That was a huge pain because it had thigh-high boots with 30 buckles on them that had to be done up individually.

I don't have a big career plan. I just like to see how things come out, and I just try to keep going in different directions.
